About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
Excellent price for a touch-screen laptop with half decent CPU and SSD.
CPU scores 1732 on cpubenchmark.net, much better than any atom, and the SSD keeps things nippy enough.
I've bought refurbished laptops from Zoostorm before and they were as new boxed.
It comes with a 12-month warranty.
This one does have a non-functioning battery, which should be replaceable/fixable, but works fine connected to mains.
Also 8X Nectar points on ebay from this Monday 20th Nov, so 640 points.

I'm using the 11.6" version of this that I got last time these laptops were doing the rounds from zoostorm. Great wee thing. I bought 4xindividual Samsung 18650 cells and fixed the battery. It was very straight-forward to do.
Alibaba have batteries for this for around £25-35.
I wouldn't hesitate to get another of these if it's as good as the last.

It will be OK for internet use, Word, etc...
Heat added for price (edited)
You'd be okay with this. The only noticeable downside of the 11.6" one is that the wifi isn't very strong compared to my other machines or phone so if you plan on using it up a few flights of stairs you might want to use an external wifi adapter.
Plus, the 11.6" one has quite a small keyboard due to its small size. I'd be hopeful that the 14" would be less footery.
The extra 32GB storage is worth the £20 premium IMO as I put another drive in the secondary slot that cost more than that.
Let's hope they are only passing by on a fleeting visit
Worth keeping an eye on the zoostorm ebay shop. They often have this and the 11.6" coming in & out of stock.
Replaced the cells in the battery for less than a tenner.
The only down side is that when the fan really kicks in, it is very loud.
This is perfect for your needs. And you won't find a touch-screen machine for anywhere near this price.
I bought a couple of the 11.6" ones for nephews and they've been great. That's the reason I posted this deal. Worth the extra £20 for bigger screen, twice size SSD and DVD drive IMHO.

Touchscreen and SSD, 4Gb Ram and not the worst processor for under £100 is amazing
still voted hot as its 64GB and 14 inch
yes, but also bear in mind that those were new with faulty batteries whereas these ones are refurbs also with faulty batteries
There's space for another HD or SSD inside this, so easy to upgrade.
Hi mate, how did you fixed the battery on the 11.6" version? Any chance of a quick summary guide and where to buy the Samsung cells? Many thanks
A quick look through the links above provided by I_love_crabs.
They seem to have general method here. I seems to involve opening the battery and replacing the cells.

This assumes it uses the same replacement batteries. If you opened it, you could check the cell model number. (edited)
